  • I'm 5'0. This is my maintenance on days that I don't run lol I lost 10lbs from January until the end of March. I netted 1200/day.
  • I used to be smaller and IF was naturally my eating pattern. I started dating someone who I now see had an unhealthy relationship with food. Being around him I added in breakfast and seemed to go from being satisfied to always hungry which led to bigger lunches, snacks and bigger dinners. That relationship ultimately ended…

  • Not sure why but maybe low carb isn't for you?
  • Like clock work. Actually I think it's a bit different. I'm starving the week I ovulate and tend to eat at maintenance that week. You can see exactly where it is on my chart and my weight even goes up. But as soon as my period is over I get a whoosh and continue my downward trend. Keeping track daily like this and seeing…
  • That's how I keep sane in this weight loss journey. I am small and aim for 1200 calories a day during the week.

This allowed me to add a snack before bed and still feel satisfied. I've never really been a breakfast eater though so this was natural for me. Look up intermittent fasting,…
  • I log it. And the fact that I know I have to log everything helps me think twice about what I'm eating. I just had one of those fall off the wagon weekends and it's good to look back and think - did I really need all of that? Time to get back to it!
  • I'm a newbie here - I try to be funny and am often sarcastic, does this count? ;) I would consider myself active and have my first half marathon this year. Woot! Feel free to add me too!
  • No breakfast for me either, I am not generally hungry until lunch and much prefer having the extra calories for a bedtime snack
